Are you trying to say poker is not a game of chance? :stupid: Do you think the casino is not gambling, just because the odds are in there favor on the table games means nothing it is still a gamble for both sides. The casino is risking money when you put down a bet you just don't see it unless you win. On a roulette wheel if you put down a dollar on one number the casino has put down a dollar on all the other numbers except the zeros. [/QUOTE]
